Acute Pharyngitis Explained
Acute pharyngitis is a sudden inflammation of the back of the throat, typically caused by a virus and sometimes by bacteria such as streptococcus. A virus is the usual cause, bacteria like streptococcus the exception, and it typically passes in around a week.
Common Triggers
Most cases are caused by cold and flu viruses that spread through droplets and shared cups. Air conditioning, dry air, smoke and shouting over loud music can irritate the throat further.
